FIRST ADDITIONAL LANGUAGE GRADE 2 Revised National Teaching Plan
GUIDELINES ON HOW TO USE THE ADJUSTED CURRICULUM FOR LANGUAGES IN FOUNDATION PHASE:
Please note the following:
1. The CAPS document for terms 1-4 (2020) has been combined into one document.
2. The curriculum was adjusted to address the core concepts and skills.
3. The first few weeks must be used to teach sounds / concepts that were not addressed in the previous year. This may be applicable for term 4 sounds that were not taught like j, r, w.
6. Learners will be at different levels. All schools will not be the same. If a school does not find this necessary, they should follow CAPS as from term 1 content.
7. The topics/themes and vocabulary for FAL are only suggestions and not compulsory. Teachers should use themes, applicable to the school context. Choose your vocabulary according to your theme.
9. Whenever group work is done, social distancing is to be adhered to.
Guidelines for assessment: Baseline assessment:
Should be done during the first 10 days of returning to school.
Baseline activities should not be a stand-alone but be integrating with the teaching and learning process.
Should be done informally and mostly through observation.
The assessment activities will focus on previous grade content.
The aim of the activities will be to determine the level of the learners to guide the teaching and learning process for the way forward.
School Based Assessment:
Assessment takes place on a continuous basis in the Foundation Phase.
A bigger focus should be on formative assessment.
Be guided by the SBA guidelines. (Rubrics and checklists are found in this guide.) Rubrics are only suggestions.
Assessment can only take place on content taught. Assessment items to be adjusted accordingly.
